Özet:

 ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to assess attitudes toward preventing hypertension development in normotensive individuals with and without a family history of hypertension. Material and Methods: The study is a prospective cross-sectional research conducted at the Family Medicine Outpatient Clinic of Haydarpaşa Numune Training and Research Hospital between May 3, 2023 and July 3, 2023. A total of 208 eligible patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Sociodemographic characteristics, chronic diseases, medication usage, smoking habits, and family history of hypertension were assessed based on their Attitudes Scale towards Prevention of Hypertension ASPH scores. Patients were divided into two groups by their family history of hypertension. Linear regression analysis was utilized to identify predictors of ASPH scores. Results: 60.1 of participants were female, with a median age of 36 years. 29.3 had at least one chronic disease, and 80.8 had a family history of hypertension. No significant difference in total ASPH scores was found between groups with and without a family history of hypertension p0.658. Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between age and total ASPH score rho-0.163, p0.019. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that having a higher education level p0.001 were associated with increased total ASPH scores. Conclusion: The study found that a family history of hypertension didnt influence attitudes towards preventing hypertension, but higher education levels were linked to better prevention attitudes. Thus, informative campaigns should focus on those with a family history of hypertension and lower education levels, as well as the broader community.
